I'll tell you why so serious

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

There are lots of low rated Aussie films, this is definitely not one of them. I thought it was deliberately bashed, but after watching it, I realised it's not any good and deserved those remarks. With such production, they should have come up with a nice storyline. Visually, it was okay-okay kind, but the story, the filmmakers are lucky that no one sued them for copying it from other flicks.Kids with bikes, a science experiment gone wrong, annoying brother and mom's new boyfriend, A new girl in the town, it was everything you have already seen. All the above, that army general was insanely bad. Why did not they get a decent actor for that important role! Performances of those soldiers were even worse, very bad than a television film made for little kids.A young kid discovers a baby dinosaur in his room, that might have come from the chemical reaction from the materials he and his gang got while exploring the woods nearby. He finds hard to hide instantly growing this unknown species, especially from the army who are sweeping the town. Where the story heads and ends are the rest of the film with some adventures.The kids were good, but not the rest. As I said the story was the worst thing happened to it. The film failed to give a proper answer to all the puzzle at the end. It's worth a watch only if you haven't seen many films in your life. But that's impossible among the majority. Yet I believe the children might enjoy it. However, I suggest films like 'ET', 'Earth to Echo', Goonies' many more over this one anytime.3/10

I am totally convinced this was made by 4th graders and passed off as a serious flick. The acting by the kids is so bad even my 7 year old was rolling her eyes. The CGI looked like something a kid would experiment with in 3rd grade and the story line was just all over the place!People who are giving positive reviews for this one have either a vested interest or they are high on something. I have seen some terrible movies in my time but this really isn't that bad, it's just sad.

You have to suspect that the two glowing reviews here were possibly made by people that had something to do with the making of this steaming pile of....digital film.There are plenty of other BETTER boy/dinosaur movies out there. Do yourself a favor and choose one of those.

Badly acted, kids performances made the adult actors seem even worse, couldn't be bothered waiting for the dinos to show up.Not a lot to like about this film, was expecting something better.Do yourselves a favour and watch, How To Train Your Dragon, the cartoon characters are more believable, likable and watchable.
